A sign of the Apocalypse? (Warning: this is VERY trivial)

I dislike Taylor Swift. I dislike her “singing”, I dislike her song topics, I really dislike her goody two-shoes persona. If it’s not a persona, then I dislike it even more. She’s just…boring.

John Mayer. A good friend of mine hilariously sums up John’s collective work as:

“I’m complicated….ohhhh…why doesn’t she love me…oooohhhh…my life is difficult…ohhhhh…I bake cookies for the elderly….oooohhh…dark and depressing, because of a woman….oooohh…she hurt me…maybe another girl could fix me…oooohhhh…(high pitched squeal, high pitched squeal)…I’m Adam Duritz with bigger eyebrows….oooohhhh”

But, I’m a woman, and while I sort of agree with the above summary, I can’t help but love him. He’s my love-hate pseudo relationship. I hate his D-baggery, but who doesn’t love a man with a guitar? Also, sometimes he looks so attractive, and others…notsomuch. So, my friend is right – he is complicated.

We need a tally, who had more SO’s in 2009 Mayer or Swift? Everytime you turned they were linked to someone different. She dated a JoBro and then TeenWolf and probably picked up a hockey player or two hanging around Pickler. He was with Jen, and well I know there were more but I can’t for the life of me remember but I do recall they all seemed to end with him reportedly going back to Jen.

Thank you for writing that stuff about Taylor Swift. I can’t stand her and haven’t been able to find the right words to describe to my husband why. I just say she is icky and tries to act all ‘they like me, they really like me’. I can’t stand it. ‘Singing’ is right. I can’t believe they keep asking her to perform on award shows. It’s horrible and I always change the channel after about 5 seconds. My thoughts on John are – that I wish he wrote ‘your body is a wonderland’ about me. Any man who would right that about a woman surely appreciates ummmm how shall I put it…bedroom time and appreciates a woman’s body. good for him.

So he did it eh?LOL!Mandy baby, let tell you the real story of what went down!this hook up happened at the z 100 jingle ball last year at madison square garden. and I cant be mad at john, taylor was looking mighty hot that night. But you could tell(at least from where i was sitting which was right next to the stage) that he had his eye on her.
and she was interested in him(they did a duet and taylor was bumpin and grinding sending the signal) I think taylor was easy pickings for a a player like john mayer,but age is nothing but a number as long as she aint too young so do your thing john mayer, do your thing!LOL!!!

I like John Mayer but not for his music… he has a wicked sense of humor and has been trying to crack into stand up for a while but not in the I’m famous route but rather doing late night spots at clubs in NYC so you got to respect that a little.

Oh, I kind of like Taylor Swift. Maybe I’m a sucker but I like her good girl persona, especially when the alternatives are the Lindsey Lohans and Britney Spears of the entertainment industry. Blech. Maybe it’s because I am a mom but I’d much rather my 15 year old look up to TS than some of these other girls- Miley Cyrus?

Though I will admit her songs can be kind of insipid, some of them are sweet. Her Grammy performance was awful- what genius decided Stevie Nicks should sing back up for her??? I mean, Stevie Nicks is a legend.

And speaking of weird combos…Taylor Swift and John Mayer? Very weird. I don’t dislike him. I like his music and he makes me laugh on Twitter. Whether he is a D-Bag or not is debatable. He has been, but does that mean he always is?

Yeahhhh, Taylor Swift is cute and perky and all, and someday she might be a decent comedy actress, but as far as the whole singing thing goes…no. I swear to god they turned off her microphone during the duet with Stevie Nicks at the Grammys.

To each…I’m not a fan of TS, she’s kin of typical of the “teen woes” genre that has followed what I call the “crying on the floor” generation of girl singers with guitars. They all start to sound alike.
That said, I couldn’t stand Michael Jackson. Great dancer but the voice and songs? EEEK!!!!

Taylor is a talented song WRITER but not singer … the Grammy performance was horrible. I swear I saw Stevie Nicks roll her eyes, seriously who thought that was a good idea???

TS just frankly can not sing live, I have never seen a good performance from her on any of the awards shows, although, and I hate to admit this, I really like her Romeo & Juliet song … don’t hurt me Amanda, please.

John Mayer is a dog and if he goes any younger he’s is going to wind up behind bars. Good performer though, maybe he can re do “Jail House Rock”

You can hate Taylor Swift all you want – but John Mayer is a Prostidude with a guitar … and a good voice … and sad lyrics. Much like a country song, which may be why they like each other. Isn’t that what Country (and Pop Country) Music is?

I personally can’t stand either one of them – Taylor for all the reasons you state – she’s really annoying me and shouldn’t have all those awards – granted Kanye was an idiot for what he did at MTV awards but you know what – deep down i agreed and was snickering. John Mayer – started out as someone likeable and then i read an article in Rolling Stone Mag – and it just turned me off – he’s beyond D-Bag and couldn’t see why anyone would want to consider anything with him.

DS while Jen a is a Ok looking older woman, Taylor swift is a much hooter younger one. and simply put I would say that the continually harping over Jen. A’s love life and marital status is the height of immaturity!Not only is that horse dead, its battered and bruised from being continually kicked! enough allready!

Could someone plleaasee just drown John Mayer in his own self-pity and call it a day? His music sucks, he looks like he needs a shower and he whines more than my 2 year old at nap time. His music isn’t catchy, & half the time you can’t understand a damn word he’s mumbling half assed into a microphone.

Taylor on the other hand…Ennhh. Some of her music really is beautifully written, maybe not always great when she sings it (especially live). But after watching her “monologue” on SNL, I think I may have developed some respect for her. (Even if she didn’t write it) @Jennifer, I agree. I’d much rather support TS than any of the other young, female pop stars out there snorting coke and purposely driving into fire hydrants.

Either way, this relationship isn’t going to last much longer than a roll of toilet paper in a model’s studio apartment (get it? Model, laxatives? hah. I thought it was funny :)) And John will only move on to the next as usual.

As I was about to hit ‘submit comment’ a John Mayer song came on at my job. If that isn’t karma, then I don’t know what is. FML.
